With no artillery shells to feed their cannons; with no fuel to feed their jets; etc. etc. the South was defeated by the on-rushing NVA in April 1975.

US Congress had cut off the money to send ammo & fuel to RVN.

The US Military left jets, tanks, artillery, etc. in RVN...but they're pretty worthless with-out gas and ammo!

What happened to the democratic government in Vietnam?

Vietnam has never had a democratic government, so nothing has ever happened to this non-existent entity. If you are referring to the Republic of Vietnam (often called South Vietnam), which was a regime in the south of Vietnam from 1954-1975, this country was not a democracy. Although it has the word "Republic" in its name, it was really a state ruled by a strongman who was deeply beholden to US interests. As for what happened to this country, when the US withdrew military forces from Vietnam in 1973, the North Vietnamese Army overran the defenses of South Vietnam and conquered the country, bringing Vietnam into united Communist rule.
